@brian_actua@tinglespoon Ok and black people have been native to the US for longer than most white people and have been a part of shaping the culture..
@tinglespoon The entire culture is a blend of a lot of people who grew up together from different cultures and then created a sub culture that was entirely unique to NYC. Fashion and music before the Internet was unique here and came from a blend of a lot of different cultures
@brian_actua@tinglespoon Black people have been in NY in large quantities for well over 100 years. Most black people have families who go back further than the majority of white people..
@blackdetta@DannyLimeLight 1) a lot of Puerto Ricans definitely present white.
2) the only white people Puerto Ricans in NYC had exposure to were Italians who werent too discriminatory towards them, the black people who lived in the areas they moved to were beefing with them so naturally they hated blacks
@QasimRashid Public school enrollment is steadily declining, not really what you want to see in a city. We are going to have a bunch of old people draining the public budget with no natural young people to replace them in the tax payer pool
@ryanphanna The DOT designed the road to be this way, if they didn't want this to happen they could've designed the road in a way to stop this from happening!
